    I’m not married anymore, so masturbation (in my opinion) is a physical necessity. I treat it the same as brushing my teeth and other bodily necessities.

    When I was 10 or 11, I was camping in a camper with my Dad and older Brother. I was in my own bunk bed - going to town on my new found mission and my Dad yelled across the dark camper - "What are you doing over there?!?! I wasn't embarrassed, I was just a kid, I didn't think it was wrong, I just knew it felt good. But I stopped and only did it when I was alone after that. I'm sure he knew what I was doing. Maybe knew. HOWEVER - it was NEVER mentioned again. Thank GOD!

    As long as there is no pain. You'll know when there is dull throbbing from within & sometimes even blood mixed with semen but none when you pee. If this happens should try stopping for a few days, then maybe try once or twice a week. Visit a doctor if there is still blood past a week or 2.

    Re: Myth # 5 - In my late 20’s I was diagnosed with OCD. I was also sent to a therapist who was very sex negative. As someone who identified male at the time and was, well, in my late 20’s, I easily masturbated 5x a week. Not long sessions, just 7-15 minutes, then get on with my day. But my therapist insisted doing it more than monthly was a sign of sex addiction especially in someone with OCD and insisted I go to 12 step program for that. It really messed me up around sex and intimacy for a long time. There are some really sick therapists out there.

    I remembered a myth you didn’t cover: When I was hanging out with a bunch of guys in my high school, one of us stated that masturbation causes tiny hairs to grow on the palms of your hands. He laughed and pointed his finger at all the guys who turned their palms over to inspect and see if this was true!

    It’s like One A Day vitamin for some. More research needed regarding its effects on slowing down the aging process. Once everyday maybe too much activity although in my late teen years at least 4 times a day was satisfying. Then I discovered the body needed replenishment until once a week became the norm. It feels nice having a few days load.

    I don't know if you post answers or comments to those who post comments. I'm almost 75 and I live alone. For me masturbation is a welcome way of release. I make it something very enjoyable and my "happy ending" is beyond belief. I also use Testosterone gel 1.62, 2 pumps after I shower each day. I often will skip a day or so but generally at least 3 times a week. I enjoy your videos. On occasion I have the good fortune to have a playmate and I always have a great time. I generally do something about 3 or 4 times weekly.

    While it is not dangerous on a physical level, masturbation is still best enjoyed responsibly keeping the natural side effects in mind - for example, for me it causes a phase of relaxation and sleepiness afterwards, so it can be detrimental when I need to be alert and active afterwards. There is also an element of mental hygene - e.g. the images and imaginations one nutures during masturbation can freely drift in all kinds of directions when they are discoupled from a partner like that, this can ultimately lead to a kind of social dysfunction if not minded out and kept in check. But you can also actively shape your life using masturbation fantasies as a technique. You should try it sometime.
